On Reporters Roundtable, Joanna Gagis talks with a panel of local reporters – Colleen O’Dea with NJ Spotlight News, Brent Johnson with NJ.com and Charles Stile with The Record/NorthJersey.com about the 11th Congressional District special election results. Democrat Analilia Mejia won in a landslide to fill now Gov. Mikie Sherrill’s vacant congressional seat.

The panel examines the balance of power in Congress, Mejia’s goals in office and what to expect in the upcoming midterm elections.

The reporters also discuss how New Jersey is preparing for the World Cup -- from NJ Transit to ticket prices and more -- why are some of the plans drawing strong reaction from Republicans and even FIFA?
